What are the dangers of mixing benedryl and alcohol and alcohol?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Two too many, too: Benadryl (diphenhydramine) has sedative properties. Alcohol has properties that are sedating. And that second alcohol dose will go even further to causing stupor, coma and death. Also seizures, loss of balance, poor judgement.
